lyrics

Too Fast

We raced down country lanes Too fast
Black ice and stupid games Time passed
We watched as the tide rolled in Too fast
Building fires and drinking gin Time passed

We were too young to know what we were doing
It’s just how it is, it’s how we all live
Way too fast

Lost ourselves growing up Too fast
Somebody ran out of luck Time passed
Love came then slipped away Too fast
So many shades of grey Time Passed

We were too young to know what we were doing
It’s just how it is, it’s how we all live
Way too fast

The world’s a great big mess it’s mad
We can’t catch the truth as it rushes by
So, so, so, so sad
So, so, so sad

We walked along the beach
We searched for something just out of reach
We tried so hard to understand
Scratched our names into the sand
And we raced down into the sea
I was chasing you but you caught me
And all that we had got washed away
Sky of blue and sea of grey
All that we had got washed away
Sky of blue and sea of grey

We were too young to know what we were doing
It’s just how it is, it’s how we all live
Way too fast

We live our lives too fast…
